Sustainable agriculture is a key thing of the effort to meet the accelerated meals demand of a swiftly growing world population. Nano-biotechnology is a promising device for sustainable agriculture. However, alternatively than appearing as nanocarriers, some nanoparticles (NPs) with special physiochemical houses inherently beautify plant boom and stress tolerance. This organic function of nanoparticles relies upon on their physiochemical properties, software technique (foliar delivery, hydroponics, soil), and the utilized concentration. Here we assessment the consequences of the one-of-a-kind types, properties, and concentrations of nanoparticles on plant boom and on quite a number abiotic (salinity, drought, heat, excessive light, and heavy metals) and biotic (pathogens and herbivores) stresses. The potential of nanoparticles to stimulate plant increase by means of high quality results on seed germination, root or shoot growth, and biomass or grain yield is additionally considered.
